This year the Owensboro High School Percussion Ensemble has the privilege of performing their 2023 concert at the annual KMEA conference. KMEA stands for Kentucky Music Educators Association where music directors\/educators from all over the state gather. Very few ensembles are selected to perform. Where most concerts are only 30 minutes, the percussion ensemble has been given an hour to be able to showcase its program in its entirety. While KMEA takes place in Louisville, anyone can enjoy Reimagine because a preview concert will be held in the OHS auditorium on February 7th at 7:00 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT THE SHOW<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe title of this year\u2019s show is \u2018Reimagine\u2019. It\u2019s about reimagining or redefining oneself as we traverse through life. As the creators of the show, we challenge ourselves every year to reimagine unique ways to create music that is challenging, engaging, and fun for our students. Much of the music presented in our percussion concerts has been written or arranged by the directors. This allows us to write with students\u2019 abilities in mind, but more importantly gives us the opportunity to experiment with creative instrumentation, involving a wealth of students in the performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The OHS Percussion Ensemble meets every other day during first block. While most students enrolled in the class started as middle school percussionists, many wind players participate in both the percussion ensemble and Red Steel. Our percussion studio is welcome to any student at OHS that is willing to put in the time and effort to excel in music. In a typical year (non-KMEA performance), the percussion show is run entirely by the students\u2013lighting design, running stage lights and cameras, sound engineering, backstage managers, and audio engineers. It takes a village to put on such a large production!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hope you enjoy this year\u2019s show \u2018Reimagine\u2019.\u201d – Aaron Klausing and Abe Barr<\/p>\n\n\n\n
